One hunk applied with fuzz and two hunks were rejected when applied both
to 2.5.66 stock and bk-latest. I fixed up the rejects by hand and
compiled a new kernel against bk-latest. I am running with that version
now, which doesn't emit the string of messages I reported originally. The
only minor anomaly I note is the cursor is a three-segment underscore
rather than a solid underscore.
